Seafood Linguine

Ingredients

1 pound uncooked linguine

2 tablespoons unsalted butter

1 cup chopped green onions

4 garlic cloves, minced

1 pound medium shrimp, peeled

1 pound sea scallops

2 cups half and half

1/2 teaspoon kosher salt

1/4 teaspoon pepper

1/2 pound lump crab meat, shell pieces removed

1 cup shredded Parmesan cheese

1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley

Instructions

Cook the pasta according to package directions.

While the pasta cooks, melt the butter in a 12 inch nonstick skillet over a medium high heat. Add onions and garlic and sauté for 1 minute or until tender. Add the shrimp and scallops and sauté for 3 minutes or until done. Reduce the heat to medium low. Add the next 4 ingredients; cook for about 3 minutes or until thoroughly heated, stirring constantly (do not boil). Sprinkle 1 cup of cheese over seafood mixture stirring constantly; cook for 1 minute; stirring constantly.

Remove from the heat. Combine the pasta and seafood mixture in a large bowl. If there is a lot of liquid, try simmering on low for about 5 minutes to let the sauce thicken a bit. Garnish with shredded Parmesan and parsley.
